Default Yard treatment service

We bought a home in Winafred that has been using Bates to take care of the yard. I called them because the yard looks terrible. They were very rude. She said they would have a salesman call and they still haven't returned a call. Any recommendations for service?

I use Massey for lawn bugs, and termites. They are expensive, IMHO, but I am happy with their work.

Just fired Massey and went back to Bates - I think it 80% of the service depends more the tech you get than the company you are with.

Totally agree -- I recommend different companies for different areas because of the responsible tech.

For lawn service, one company I've found that does it all (cutting, weeding, trimming, yard pest control) and is truly doing a good job is Chad's Lawn Care (352/787-8303 or 352/430-5416). Have been pretty happy with their work so far.

Another vote for Stellar. They do it all, and very well.

We just hired Stellar and have found that their customer service, as well as yard work is outstanding! Another vote for them
